Where is total_descent or steps in the activity Json

I walk and ski.  On the app and website for skiing it shows the descent labelled vertical. On the app and website for walking it shows the steps.  But neither the API nor the JSON I get from the activity end point has this metric.Thoughts?  Where can I get it? DAvid

making route public via app

Are there any plans to allow iPhone App to change a route from “private” to “public” ? When trying to share and having access to the web to make this change is not always available. Seems like this would be a simple fix?

Changing currency for subscription

Hi,I would like to start a new subscription with Strava, but it keeps showing pricing in Euro. I lived in Germany before but moved to Japan now. I would like to purchase in Japanese yen. Another twist on my case is that the subscription plan I would like to choose is student plan. I am an active student with the university in the UK. Thus, my student ID has been issued in the UK, not in Japan.With all the unique layers of my case, how will I be able to subscribe a student plan in Japanese yen? Is it possible?

Accessing Strava data from Golden Cheetah

Despite a lot of work on this I still cannot get GC 3.7 to access my Strava data. I have tried the various solutions but still cannot connect to Strava data from GC. I am on MacOS. I am using access codes to think the easiest will be to revert to password but I thought the steps below would workaround this.I follow the steps to get an access token back from the Strava oauth API but I get 307 error from this command.Bashcurl -X POST strava.com/oauth/token -d client_id=xxx \ -d client_secret=xxxx \ -d code=xxxx \ -d grant_type=authorization_code Returns error:<html><head><title>307 Temporary Redirect</title></head><body><center><h1>307 Temporary Redirect</h1></center><hr><center>CloudFront</center></body></html>curl: (3) URL rejected: Malforme

Fake GPS data

We run a rewards app based on top of Strava APIHowever we are getting a large number of people faking their Walks, Runs, Cycles using tools like “GPS Joystick” on Android. There are many tools to fake Strava activities, and we are concerned that a rewards app on Strava can be exploited heavily.We would like to suggest that the Strava mobile app has extra security features to detect such apps, and pass a flag through to the API so that consumers can decide what to do with fake dataWe suggest that the Strava mobile app, also includes Cellular network GPS verification, accelerometer sensor verifcation, to verify that the mobile device “was actually moving” when the activity was recorded Kind regards

Webhook authorize false sent several days after revoking

Is it possible that Strava sends out authorize:false event several days AFTER revoking? Or maybe is repeating that webhook event? I had a case I revoked on my test user, then connected again. All worked as expected and then after a week I am receiving authorize:false again and my user is deauthorized!Is it possible? That case happened for two users and both events was send in the same batch from Strava and processed together within my 2 minutes interval.I have checked my security flow and I am sure there is no way for someone else to push such event to my app.

Mysterious API failures with HTTP2

My Android customers (of the CrewNerd app) have been reporting a variety of mysterious errors when uploading workouts to Strava. There were timeouts, sockets closing abruptly, and protocol errors all happening randomly. But there were no reports of problems from my iPhone users.After much experimentation, it looks like the problems (which only started a couple of weeks ago) are related somehow to HTTP2. If I force my Android code to use HTTP1.1, there are no problems.Bottom line - I think Strava introduced a regression recently in their HTTP2 support.

Strange API timeouts when uploading activities

Several of my Android customers (of the CrewNerd app) have reported persistent timeout errors when attempting to upload activities. I haven’t been able to reproduce the problem, but I made a beta release with longer connection timeouts on the client side, but this hasn’t resolved the problem. Now, one of the beta users is getting an outright connection failure showing an IPv6-style address.Is something weird going on with the Strava API?

Strava API App Issues: "Simon's Journey Viz" Redirection & App Management Problems

Hi Strava Developer Community,I'm running into a strange issue with my local Strava API app, "Miles to Merch."When I try to log in, I consistently get redirected to the authorization page for "Simon's Journey Viz," even though I'm using my own app's Client ID and Secret. My backend's debug output confirms this. My callback domain is correctly set to localhost, and I've cleared my browser cache.The most confusing part is I can't delete my current "Miles to Merch" app and can't create new apps through my Strava API settings. Those options simply aren't there.Has anyone experienced something similar? It feels like there's an issue with my account or app ownership on Strava's end, causing these conflicts.Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

wrong pace when sharing stats

Hi! I’ve got a problem since 22nd of July, my running pace when I view the activity is correct but when I want to share the stats (transparent background option for example) then the pace is not realistic, very weird. Distance and time is correct but pace is incorrect. I’ll add some screenshots. Can anybody help me or know what is wrong with my strava?

generating fit-file in our app for Strava

We are a developing an app for our e-bike systems. Our app allows users to configure settings and navigate, for example. We are in the process of releasing a new feature that will enable our users to track their rides.These rides allow us to display average values within our app, and we also offer the option to download a .fit file, which can be imported into platforms like Strava. We have several customers who also use Strava, and we naturally want to provide them with the best possible data.However, we have encountered an issue: when the .fit file generated by our app is uploaded to Strava, the speed data in the analysis appears unusual or incorrect.Our recording method is relatively straightforward: we begin recording as soon as the bike speed is greater than zero, and we save the data every second, also the GPS Data in the same way.My primary concern is to understand what we might be overlooking in the .fit file and why these discrepancies app

How to Correct wrong segment elevation and grade data

I’ve come across two segments in my personal heatmap that simply have VERY wrong elevation and gradient data. One example is on segment “Conant Road Climb” in Lincoln MA, segment 4177639.This is the 0.45 mile section of Old Conant Road southbound from the end of the unpaved footpath and going down to Hawk Hill Road. Elevation at start is 274', at Old Conant Rd meets Hawk Hill Rd is 232. So the elevation change is -42 feet, a slight downhill. But the Strava user who created this segment named it Conant Road Climb! Despite its negative elevation delta, the segment is listed as having a 232' rise, yielding the VERY incorrect 9.6% grade over its 0.45 mile length. At segment creation, it appears the elevation change was incorrectly set to the actual elevation at the segment's endpoint. The segment’s definition shows a crazy pair of values: Lowest Elev-114ft Highest Elev118ft Elev Delta: +232 Clearly no l

Where to get Device name for multiple activities

Hello there, I’ve created an app for my analytics web application and I’ve managed to connect and use it successfully. I’m now trying to get the `device_name` from the `GET /athlete/activities` endpoint but I saw that the model returned does not contain it.In order to get that info I could do a single `GET /activities/{id}` for each activity found in the former, but in doing so I would burn a lot of resources on your end and deplete my hourly/daily limits. Is there another way of getting the device name?Thank you

Now all group events ever made are getting listed, but that’s not really what I need.Honestly I can’t find anything in the documentation about this REST API call. I found this call by searching on Google.Gr,Andy
